Comentario sobre Kilayim 9:3
מִטְפְּחוֹת הַיָּדַיִם, מִטְפְּחוֹת הַסְּפָרִים, מִטְפְּחוֹת הַסַּפָּג, אֵין בָּהֶם מִשּׁוּם כִּלְאָיִם. רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר אוֹסֵר. וּמִטְפְּחוֹת הַסַּפָּרִים, אֲסוּרוֹת מִשּׁוּם כִּלְאָיִם:
Las toallas de mano, las fundas de pergamino y las toallas de baño no están sujetas a las leyes de kilayim . El rabino Eliezer los prohíbe. Las toallas de barbero están sujetas a las leyes de kilayim .
English Explanation of Mishnah Kilayim
Introduction
The next five mishnayot begin to catalogue what items made of cloth are subject to the kilayim prohibition. The basic rule is that anything used to cover a person’s body, even temporarily, may be subject to the laws of kilayim. The reason is that the Torah phrases the prohibition as “One may not wear shatnez” (Deuteronomy 22:11). From here the rabbis derive that only “wearing” or anything close to wearing is prohibited.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kilayim
Hand towels, scroll covers, and bath towels do not come under the prohibition of kilayim. Rabbi Eliezer prohibits. All of these items are not used to cover a person’s body. They are not “worn.” Therefore they are not subject to the laws of kilayim.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kilayim
Barbers’ covers are subject to the prohibition of kilayim. The cloths that the barber puts on the person getting his/her hair cut are in actuality temporary clothing. Since they are in a sense clothing, they are subject to the laws of kilayim.
